The 58 year old Copley man who has been charged in connection with the murders of three men and the attempted murder of another, is being held in the Summit County jail without bond.

That ruling in the case of Elias Gudino, Beacon Journal reports, came from JudgeTodd McKenney, in Barberton Municipal Court, yesterday.

Gudino, who previously spent more than 12 years in prison for running a multi-state drug operation out of the Akron area, is facing felony charges related to the recent discovery of four men found bound, gagged, and shot in the head --two in Akron, and two in Copley.
